We are focused on studying the first villages that settled in northwestern Argentinaapproximately two thousand years ago. We are a team formed by different scientists, fromarchaeologists to historians. We combine different avenues of data obtained from one of theearliest villages of NWA in order to discuss the consolidation of agropastoral lifeways.We ask in this presentation: How were agro-pastoral practices in early villages? This shouldallow us to discuss how agro-pastoral production played a determining role in socialstructuration.
